That's not really a bar. It's the horizontal part of the point symbol 
that gnuplot puts in the middle of an errorbar.  You'll see it more 
easily if you change your plot command to:

	plot x, 'data.dat' w yerrorlines

If you don't want that, you can change the point symbol to a dot:

	plot 'data.dat' with yerrorlines pointtype -1
